I would like to fix this crash for the background capplet in the control center. However i need help from you, i need to know if this crash happes when a particular image is beeing set as the background and also if it happens every time that image is set. If this is the case can you provide me with an URL to the image that makes the background capplet crash so that i can try to replicate it in my computer. Thanks in advance
